“Marina was so responsive and real one for replying and helping with a request the day before my trip. She was super positive in her texting tone and was quick to reply. So glad that she was on-time and helpful. She sent happy photos of my pup, and left a very detailed account of her visit. Thank goodness for Marina, and I’ll definitely use her again.”

“Ashley is so communicative about what is happening with the pets! I felt so reassured and I knew my dogs were well taken care of. I love my dogs so much and I felt like she does too- very spoiled! Thanks, Ashley”

“Courtney did a great job doing what I asked of her and even went above and beyond, spending extra time with my dogs. When we had an incident (not related to her) at 1 am she went to check on them. I would definitely recommend Courtney.”
“Dana did an amazing job taking care of my cats! She was also on raccoon party clean ups as the local raccoons entered nightly through the pet door while I was away and disassembled my cat's auto feeder to gorge on cat food leaving a mess behind. Dana even went to the local pet food store to purchase the same dry food I use because the raccoons were eating all of it at night. She truly went above and beyond! And she had a great attitude during all of this. She sent me funny messages about it in her daily updates to me. I can't thank her enough! I would highly recommend her for your future sitter! Five star service!”

“Hannah is always down to come and give my little a few mins of love and attention…I can tell when u come back from any trip that my little girl is much happier! I book her every time I need a drop-in sitter.”

About: I understand how important it is to have a responsible pet sitter and I’ve been on both sides, I’ve used the app myself and know what owners really want is good communication and genuine care. I am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic medication, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I want your pet to be comfortable and happy at all times! I work full-time but am fortunate to work from home with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to do regular drop-in visits and also provide in-home pet sitting during the week. I’m fully available on weekends and would love to provide loving care for your fur babies. I provide pet care exclusively in the owner’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive and always respectful of your home, and make sure your pet receives plenty of companionship and supervision.
“Daniela does such a great job! I’ve only used her a few times with my puppy Daisy and I’m so glad I found her! I will definitely continue to use her!”


“Kathrine was a great sitter! She even found our kitty who had escaped before we left and brought him back for us. She was so attentive to the pets and their needs.”

About: Hi! I am your fur baby's new best friend! I've owned dogs for over 20 years. Volunteered at shelters, taken in strays and found them homes, and adopted as well. I have sat for countless friends and family over the years and now I'd like to become an entrepreneur of sorts, doing what brings me joy! PLEASE NOTE: Owner is responsible for communicating any parking restrictions or limitations. Agreeing to book with me means that tickets or towing incurred during booking timeframe will be at owners expense!!! Open schedule currently. I am able to accommodate and work around sudden schedule changes. Looking to sit at least 3 times a week. Book me please! I respect others pets and property and treat it as my own. Reputation and trust are important and if a family is so kind to consider me to take care of their furbaby, I would do nothing to jeopardize that trust.
“Courtney took great care of my dogs and house while I was out of town. She was extremely flexible with the scheduled drop ins and very responsive to any messages. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have been around animals before I could even walk. I have fostered, doggie/kitty sat for many, and raised many myself. I have a college student availability. I have open availability on weekends. Because of school, I am available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday before 2 pm. I am flexible as long as we can successfully communicate. I believe communication is key for the safety and wellbeing of your furry friend. A set schedule/ list of care would be very much appreciated.
About: I have experience pet-sitting for large dogs (including one anxious pitbull) with distinct dietary needs and specific schedules, as well as boarding smaller dogs and fostering and sitting for MANY cats. I'm particularly skilled at medicating difficult cats (both pills and liquids). I give every pet the close attention they need and the best care possible, even when the cats insist on fresh ice water! I work remotely and love the variety of visiting with furry friends throughout the day. Far from a distraction, pets put me at my best productivity in their company and always know the perfect time for a break. I have reliable transportation and pride myself on being consistently punctual. I'm also glad to take notes and ask questions to make sure I meet your every need.
“I was a bit nervous since we just move to our first time and we needed a pet sitter over the holiday weekend. Alexandra just has a great vibe to her and I felt comfortable. She answered all my questions and she followed all the directions perfectly. We came home to a happy cat!”

“I could not say thank you enough to Cam!! She went above and beyond for our fur babies! And at a short notice! She made sure they were so loved 🥰 They may even love Cam more than us now! If you want to make sure your sitter goes above and beyond, book with Cam!”


About: I have two big dogs, and I run with them every single morning. I can run two big dogs at a time. I love dogs of all sizes. When I meet dogs for the first time, they always warm up to me super quickly. I'm currently working part time, and my hours are really flexible. I'll need a few days notice for taking care of your pet and only one day's notice for cancellation. Mornings are the best time of day for me to run and walk with dogs, especially as the weather gets warmer. I can check on your dogs in the morning and afternoon, if they need to be checked on twice in one day. When I run with my dogs, I always take several poop bags and pick up poop on our outings. I can run or walk with two big dogs at the same time. When I run, I don't listen to music or anything so I can pay attention to cars and other activities going on.
About: I’ve worked with animals since childhood and currently handle my own reactive dog who has significant behavioral challenges. Through extensive training, positive reinforcement, and patience, I’ve learned to read body language, manage triggers, and create calm environments for anxious or reactive pets. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, cats, and other animals. Neighbors, friends, and family trust me with their pets because I treat each animal as an individual with unique needs. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a senior pet requiring medication, or a reactive dog needing structured walks, I provide attentive, reliable care that gives owners peace of mind. I work full-time during the week, so I’m available for walks and drop-ins on weekday evenings (typically after 5-6pm) and anytime on weekends. This makes me ideal for after-work walks, evening feeding visits, or full weekend care when you’re traveling. I’m also flexible for last-minute weekend bookings. I keep a consistent schedule so your pet can rely on regular timing, and I always communicate clearly about availability and any changes. For dog walks, I’m experienced with leash reactivity and keep dogs safely secured with secure collars/harnesses. I follow each owner’s specific instructions for feeding, medication, and routine. In your home, I’m respectful of your space, keep doors/gates secured, and send photo updates so you know your pet is happy and safe. I have a fenced yard if boarding is needed. My own dog has taught me to be vigilant about safety - I never take risks with gates, doors, or off-leash situations unless you’ve explicitly approved it.
Towngate pet parents share their Rover experiences
Paola was great! She made the process super easy for someone (myself) who hasn't used Rover in a couple years and on short notice too! From the initial meet and greet to the actual drop in visits, I always felt like Pepper was in great care and I would receive regular updates and a report afterward. It really put me at ease and I would use Paola again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend her!
